00:00And we're going to start with a running back with a toe issue and an opportunity to play

00:08against a defense that's probably going to destroy them collectively.

00:12So I'll let you take it from there while I hit the cough button.

00:15Yeah.

00:16Kansas City Chiefs, second best against the run this year of any other team in the NFL

00:21and Bucky Irving already has a toe issue and a game script that could be in the negative.

00:25So this is just a bad confluence of events, right?

00:28What's that?

00:29It's like an old movie, a series of unfortunate events.

00:31That could be the feeling here for Bucky Irving.

00:34You don't like running backs with toe issues.

00:35We've seen this many times here.

00:37They say, oh, it's questionable.

00:39Maybe a game time decision and then they play and then it's just not good.

00:42So toe foot issues about the worst thing you can possibly get here as a running back.

00:47And it's not his backfield completely either anyway, because Rashad White is there.

00:50And if it is a negative game script, well, Rashad White's going to work out of that passing

00:54game on you.

00:56lot more than you going to see Bucky Irving and that's unfortunate.

01:00So it's a bad matchup, bad health, bad game script, and just a lot of bad when it comes

01:05to Bucky Irving.

01:06So I want to give you pivot points here because I just don't want to say, well, you know,

01:09it's it's not, you know, you can't start him because you need to start other guys here.

01:13So Austin Eckler, especially with Brian Robinson, not being 100% healthy, he's a guy you could

01:17start this week.

01:18I think over him, you could Nick Chubb is absolutely a guy I would start over him or

01:22Andre Stevenson, Tracy, even Chuba Hubbard, especially this week to against New Orleans.

01:28They're going to continue to try to run the football as much as they can, because they

01:31don't really have a lot else to talk about on offense.

01:34So that that those are all guys to me that would be pivot points for Bucky Irving this

01:38week.

01:39So I just don't like the matchup.

01:40I don't like the health.

01:41I just don't like anything about this.

01:42So I would fade away from it this week, hope for better health next week and a better matchup.

01:45And I think that would certainly go a long way.

01:48So don't overreact.

01:49Don't drop them.

01:50Don't do anything like that.

01:51Find an alternative this week at RB2 or Flex, because I think there's a lot better choices

01:55out there.
